Description
Hudson Bay Hosta is a compact shade-loving herbaceous perennial primarily grown for its large textured heart-shaped blue foliage with a contrasting creamy white and apple green center flame. The tall scapes of pale lavender bell-like flowers raise up above the mound in mid-summer attracting butterflies and pollinators. Best bloom in part sun and moist well-drained soils.
